If you are having electrical goods and other items collecte we will arrange to pick these items on a separate collection.

This can be anything from garden furniture, televisions, fridges, and carpets. Items that are not on the order will not be collected.

Where do I put items for collection? Once you have booked your uplift, you should place your items to the front of your property (without blocking the pavement) before 7am on the day of your collection.

Up to two free uplifts will be available for each household over the first five week period ending Friday October. Items for uplift must be presented at the nearest point of collection for our vehicle - this is usually at the front of your property, at the nearest point to the pavement.

Additional items can be collected for £5. The service costs £20. Request a collection. This service is for residential properties only and we do not collect from commercial premises or red routes.
